Substitute Part Grouping Explanation
Substitution for the UPW1A152MPD is determined by strict equivalence across the following parameters:
- Capacitance: 1500 µF (exact match required)
- Voltage Rating: 10 V (exact match required)
- Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
- Polarization: Polar (exact match required)
- Mounting Type: Through Hole (exact match required)
- Package Type: Radial, Can (exact match required)
- Lead Spacing: 0.197" (5.00mm) (exact match required)
- Diameter: 0.394" (10.00mm) (exact match required)
- Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C (exact match required)
All substitute parts listed meet these core electrical and mechanical parameters. Variations in height, impedance, ripple current ratings, and lifetime specifications do not disqualify a part from substitution, provided the above parameters are maintained.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can UPS1A152MPD replace UPW1A152MPD directly? A: UPS1A152MPD meets all core electrical and mechanical parameters for direct substitution. However, it provides 2000 hours lifetime at 105°C versus 5000 hours for UPW1A152MPD. Selection depends on application lifetime requirements.
Q: What is the difference between EEU-FC1A152 and EEU-FC1A152B? A: Both are Panasonic FC series capacitors with identical electrical specifications. The primary difference is packaging: EEU-FC1A152 is supplied in Bulk, while EEU-FC1A152B is supplied in Cut Tape (CT). Height also differs: 0.984" versus 1.063" respectively.
Q: Are Chemi-Con ELXZ and ELXY series suitable for automotive applications? A: Yes. Both ELXZ100ELL152MJ25S and ELXY100ELL152MJ30S carry AEC-Q200 ratings and are qualified for automotive use.
Q: Does height variation affect substitution compatibility? A: Height variation does not disqualify substitution provided the part fits within available PCB space. Verify mounting clearance and component layout before selection.
Q: Which substitute offers the lowest impedance? A: ELXY100ELL152MJ30S provides 44 mOhms impedance, the lowest among all listed parts. UPM1A152MPD, UPW1A152MPD6, EEU-FC1A152, EEU-FC1A152B, and ELXZ100ELL152MJ25S all provide 45 mOhms.
Q: Can I use an Active product to replace a Not For New Designs part? A: Yes. Active products such as EEU-FC1A152, EEU-FC1A152B, ELXY100ELL152MJ30S, and ELXZ100ELL152MJ25S are recommended for new designs and ongoing production to ensure long-term supply availability.
